Sam's Club sells a jug of already peeled garlic cloves, so I usually just grab a big handful and throw them in the food processor. But, I would say
the number above is about how many it ends up being. We love garlic (it keeps the vampires away...especially this close to Halloween and it's a
natural antibiotic)! You can use less.

Calorie intake...yes....I don't want to know. This is for special occasions lol. But, I made this for Christmas Eve last year wth my heart healthy
Seafood & Sausage Gumbo. I'll get to those low-fat recipes in time lol.

Hey i work at a brewery in Lancaster Pennsylvania, we have a Milk Stout.. I tried it with your general recipe it came out pretty good, i didn't try
it personally but i made it for our kitchen and brewery staff they loved it, i also incorporated spent grains (oats) from the brewery process and also
dry oats, then i also made a few with hot peppers from my garden, jalapenos, habaneros (regular and chocolate peppers), Bhut Jolokia chili pepper (
Ghost Pepper ) and sold them to friends, they loved it gives a little heat to the bread ( one pepper per loaf is sufficient ) unless you like it extra
hot. anyway i been chef mostly my whole life, never really dug baking, (did cakes, strudels, and bread here and there..but this got me back in to it.
thanks-Juicy J.

What if you choose to not use beer, don't use the stuff at all.....what could you substitute

You can use non-alcoholic beer if you don't want the alcohol, but most of the alcohol in regular beer burns off in the baking process anyway. So,
other options would be to use plain carbonated water, Sprite (or diet), 7-UP, Root Beer, etc. Just use any carbonated beverage of your choice as a
substitute for the beer.

The beer adds a bit of rise to the loaf due to the yeast. But, the baking powder provides rise too. So, it should turn out great with the
substitutes.
